“Care for the Caregivers – Lessons from the Middle”
Tuesday, September 29, 2015 7:00pm-8:30pm 8 Novelty Lane, Essex
“Care for the Caregivers – Lessons from the Middle”
Are you one of the millions of people in this country now caring for both children and elderly parents? Or perhaps you are juggling your professional life and the caregiving of a partner, elder, or friend. If so, you are not alone.
We know that the demands of carrying caregiving roles and responsibilities are often stressful, and frequently caregivers do not find time to prioritize their own self-care. The fields of positive psychology and neuroscience offer tools and practices to take small steps that lead to increased well-being, resilience, and happiness even in the midst of life’s challenges.
In this FREE workshop, Peggy Chappell, LCSW will introduce you to the possibility of thriving in rather than surviving the caregiving role.
Call or Email Essex Wellness Center to reserve a place in this FREE workshop Now! 860-767-7770 or Email Us Now! You can also register easily online by going to: https://clients.mindbodyonline.com/classic/home?studioid=255686

I believe yoga is beautiful in every sense. It clears your mind through meditation and you gain strength while gently flowing with your breath through the asanas.

Anything is possible if you put your mind to it.

Conquering Holiday Stress
If you’re beginning to dread the onset of holiday ‘stress’ – it’s time to take action! Some stress is normal, beneficial in fact as a personal motivator; inspiring us to meet and exceed our goals. Left unchecked, ‘stress’ has a way of eroding our ability to thrive in all areas of life; health issues become more pervasive, relationships are tested and strained, and we don’t always show up as our best selves.
December 2nd, 5:30pm-7:00pm Live Well 2016 Lecture presented by the Essex Wellness Center will feature Ellen Wasyl, Chief Possibilitarian®, Coach and Management Consultant at The Possibility Experience who will be discussing Holiday ‘Stress’ Management, how to notice, reduce and prevent stress during the season.
Please join us for a spirited Essex Wellness Center “Live Well 2016” discussion with Ellen on the evening of December 2nd where we’ll discuss strategies for managing stress, creating greater balance in your life, and claiming the 2015 holiday celebration experiences you desire. This is a FREE event open to the public!
The first offering of Essex Wellness Center’s “Live Well 2016 Lecture Series” will be held at our group space located at 8 Novelty Lane in the village of Essex. This lecture series is FREE to the public but SPACE IS LIMITED!! Pre-register NOW to reserve your spot as we will end up having to turn people away if we exceed our limited accommodation for this great, educational event!

Essex Wellness Center welcomes new challenge from new manager
The River Valley Slim-Down Challenge, now in its fifth year, begins January 9. It combines exercise and nutrition with a sense of competition and a chance to win some big bucks – all with the goal of losing a few pounds as we head into 2016.
The River Valley Slim-Down Challenge was created by Donna Scott, CPR, WLS, formerly of IFoundFitness in Deep River, who has recently been named as Manager of Essex Wellness Center’s Fitness on the Water facility on Novelty Lane in Essex Village. Scott is certified as a Personal Trainer and Weight Loss Specialist through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM). She is also AFAA-Certified as a personal trainer and Mad Dogg spin instructor.
“The River Valley Slim-Down Challenge has enough elements to keep people motivated to shed those pounds they’ve been thinking about. Built-in incentives keep participants on track, and the camaraderie to improve personal health is fantastic,” said Scott. “The Challenge isn’t only about losing weight; it also helps to improve balance, flexibility and overall fitness.”
To join the challenge, participants pay an entry fee of $65 and then agree to take a minimum of two weekly Fitness on the Water group classes such as yoga, spin, barre, bootcamp workout, Zumba, or one weekly personal training session. The entry fee includes an initial wellness assessment and nutrition workshops throughout the 12-week period as well as fitness tips, advice and supervision from Donna Scott.
The entry fee goes towards a jackpot, which also gets a boost from small “penalty fees” incurred when a participant misses a weigh-in or gains instead of loses weight in a particular week.
The prize jackpot will be divided by the three top “losers” in terms of body weight percentage. In addition to the jackpot, top ranking winners receive prizes from local businesses and include Essex Wellness Center massages, and more.
“Everyone who has entered in the past has lost weight and feels better about themselves, which is the greatest reward of all,” says Scott.
To join the 2016 River Valley Slim-Down Challenge, call 860-581-8225 Or email donna@essexwellnessctr.com. The Challenge runs January 9 – April 2, 2016. Participants may enter individually or as a group with friends or colleagues. Sign-up before January 9 and receive a 3-class pass to Essex Wellness center’s Fitness on the Water.

Title and Topic: “Healthy Body – Healthy Weight: The secrets to improving your body composition permanently ”
Weight loss is both incredibly simple as well as incredibly complex. Once we know why it has been difficult to maintain a healthy body weight we know exactly the most effective and long lasting methods to get you where you want to be. This approach will help you look at every aspect of your person and your life, from metabolic irregularities to emotional obstacles. The most important thing to remember about weight loss is that it is about more than just losing some extra pounds. It is about creating a healthy life and body, wherein the pounds happen to vanish on their own. It is not about being deprived or doing things you do not want to. It is about putting yourself first and loving yourself enough to make your health a priority.

Title and Topic: “The Power of Guided Visualization a/k/a Hypnosis to Reduce Stress and Improve Health”
So many of us today lead extremely busy lives. We find ourselves constantly rushing around, always “on the go.” We have commitments to jobs, to family and friends, to our households, churches or temples, and even the gym! We are stretched and pulled in many different directions; no wonder we often feel “stressed out,” tense, and pressured. We need to balance all that whirlwind activity with some time to unwind.
Many people use guided visualization for that very purpose: to relax and refuel, since there are a variety of physical health benefits to guided visualization. These include a lowering of blood pressure as well as the level of stress hormones in the blood. After quieting body and mind, these individuals feel full of energy and exceedingly relaxed. Refreshed, they are ready to face the challenges that await them.
A hands on demonstration will be presented for everyone to experience the benefits of this helpful relaxation technique!

Announcing the opening of “Advanced Health & Longevity” March 1st
Essex Wellness Center’s Advanced Health & Longevity Expansion Brings
New Services to Connecticut Shoreline and River Valley
Beginning March 1, Essex Wellness Center will offer specialized longevity services geared toward the 50 crowd interested in aging well physically, mentally and emotionally.
The nation’s 90-and-older population nearly tripled over the past three decades, according to the U.S. Census Bureau and National Institute on Aging, and that trend continues to grow.
“While aging puts a person at risk for several health issues, illness and disability are not inevitable,“ said Essex Wellness Center Founder Heidi E. Kunzli, MS, LADC, adding, “Working on your health now improves the odds for good health later. Advancing age requires advanced health strategies to increase longevity with a high ‘active life expectancy.’ This is a projection of how long a person will stay independent, healthy and well.”
Unmanaged aging can adversely affect quality of life with conditions resulting in:
• Insomnia
• Memory decline
• Weight gain
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Smoking and excessive consumption of alcohol
• Chronic pain
• Circulatory issues
• Acute or chronic pain
• Arthritis
• Poor self esteem and body image
• Dwindling energy
• Loss of sex drive
• Medication side effects and interactions
• Cancer, hypertension and other aging-related diseases
If this isn’t what you see for yourself as you acknowledge the passage of time, Advanced Health & Longevity offers an array of evidence-based integrative interventions that include complete functional testing and assessments, nutrition consultation, one-on-one stress management, acupuncture, specialized therapeutic massage, hypnosis, health coaching, fitness programming, injectables, facial enhancements and other advanced aesthetics, body wraps, scrubs and more.
Naturopathic physicians Dana Krete, ND, and Derrick Schull, ND, lead a team of highly experienced and knowledgeable practitioners, each of whom is highly regarded as being “the best of the best” in their specific field. Both Drs. Krete and Schull treat conditions related to the “dis-ease” of aging. While Dr. Krete is known for her work with functional assessment and natural treatment for chronic conditions, nutrition, supplements, specially formulated tinctures and Chinese medicine, Dr. Schull’s work has been focused on treating pain and discomfort related to the neuromuscular and skeletal systems. He is also proficient with physical therapy techniques, neurofeedback and craniosacral therapy. Acupuncturist Alicia DeMartin, LAc, specializes in orthopedic conditions such as arthritis, injuries and post-surgical pain following joint replacement.
Advanced Health & Longevity is located directly behind Essex Wellness Center’s anchor location at 28 Main Street in Essex Village with free off-street parking. New patients are being accepted for primary care and a la carte services. Essex Wellness Center is happy to complement care received through a patient’s existing medical professionals and specialists. Some major insurance is accepted; check with your insurance provider.
For more information, call 860.767.7770 or visit essexwellnessctr.com.

Medical Aesthetics by Annette Eppler, APRN are here!
Annette Eppler APRN is excited to partner with Essex Wellness Center after nearly 25 years as a
healthcare provider. Her career has been broad to include years of Cardiac ICU nursing and now since
2009, after graduating from Quinnipiac University with her MSN, she has gained invaluable

The promotion of wellness and assisting patients to be able to return to a level individualized to their
own personal health goal has always been a key focus of Annette’s practice, within these various
patient populations, including pulmonary /orthopedic spine/ and primary care. In 2011 she decided to
bridge her strengths and balance both “ the art and the science of medicine together” and learn the
skill of facial rejuvenation to promote a sense of well being with soft , personalized changes to enhance
each patients own unique beauty. This was the beginning of her small company called Rejuvenations.
With continuous training offered across the country, Annette is always excited to learn new techniques
and add products to better serve her clients and patients in the world of both restoration of wellness and
aesthetic rejuvenation. The art of these injectables is to maintain individual beauty and character but to

Annette is excited to meet the community surrounding the beautiful town of Essex.

Anti-Aging Medicine with Drs. Dana Krete and Derrick Schull, and Alicia DeMartin, Acupuncturist
There is external beauty and there is internal wellness. When both function optimally together, there is health.
Acupuncture and anti-aging go hand in hand because both view the human body in its totality for understanding the root cause of disease. The body, when healthy, is capable of self healing. Acupuncturists and anti-aging specialists are medical detectives who search for underlying deficiencies and blockages that are responsible for illness and disease.
Anti-aging medicine is not about stopping the clock. It’s about aging without disease, mental decline and a crippling body. It applies advanced medical technologies for prevention, early detection, treatment and reversal of age-related dysfunction, disorders and diseases.
With early detection, early intervention and modest lifestyle changes, the statement, “Your symptoms are from old age” may be a thing of the past.

It combines exercise and nutrition with a sense of competition and a chance to win some big bucks – all with the goal of losing a few pounds as we head into Summer 2016.
The River Valley Slim-Down Challenge was created by Donna Scott, CPR, WLS, formerly of IFoundFitness in Deep River, who has recently been named as Manager of Essex Wellness Center’s Fitness on the Water facility on Novelty Lane in Essex Village. Scott is certified as a Personal Trainer and Weight Loss Specialist through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM). She is also AFAA-Certified as a personal trainer and Mad Dogg spin instructor.
“The River Valley Slim-Down Challenge has enough elements to keep people motivated to shed those pounds they’ve been thinking about. Built-in incentives keep participants on track, and the camaraderie to improve personal health is fantastic,” said Scott. “The Challenge isn’t only about losing weight; it also helps to improve balance, flexibility and overall fitness.”
To join the challenge, participants pay an entry fee of $65 and then agree to take a minimum of two weekly Fitness on the Water group classes such as yoga, spin, barre, bootcamp workout, Zumba, or one weekly personal training session. The entry fee includes an initial wellness assessment and nutrition workshops throughout the 9-week period as well as fitness tips, advice and supervision from Donna Scott.
The entry fee goes towards a jackpot, which also gets a boost from small “penalty fees” incurred when a participant misses a weigh-in or gains instead of loses weight in a particular week.
The prize jackpot will be divided by the three top “losers” in terms of body weight percentage. In addition to the jackpot, top ranking winners receive prizes from local businesses and include Essex Wellness Center massages, and more.
“Everyone who has entered in the past has lost weight and feels better about themselves, which is the greatest reward of all,” says Scott.
To join the “Spring into Summer” 2016 River Valley Slim-Down Challenge, call 860-581-8225 Or email donna@essexwellnessctr.com. The Challenge runs April 23 – June 25, 2016.
